Exactly my first reaction!

Believe me you had to live thru those 20 years of just bad football and then achieve this victory. The only thing better at that time was beating the Broncos and winning the SB.
Quote from: uconnjack8 on March 16, 2024, 08:29:10 AMBaby Papa and Charlie Weis had a conversation about the Giants this week on NFL Radio.
They were discussing offseason rumors in general. Weis was trying to make a point about people and their predictions and how they could know what they claim to know.
Weis asked Papa if head heard any info about the Giants draft intentions (or general other offseason moves) noting that Papa is about as close to the Giants as any beat reporter or other media people.
And Papa said absolutely not, the organization is as tight lipped as any regime he can remember.
Quote from: MightyGiants on March 02, 2024, 10:05:43 AMConsider that Schoen's plan was for this team to have an elite O-line with
All-Pro Andrew Thomas at LT
High-rounder Josh Ezeudu at LG providing solid play
Second-rounder JMS, being the elite anchor in the middle of the line
Glowinski providing a solid but unspectacular play at RG
High pick Evan Neal was supposed to play at Pro Bowl level
The pair of elite OTs would have been negating all edge rushers without double-team
DJ was supposed to have tons of time, which would have made the receivers look far more talented. Receivers always look better at 5 Mississippi than 3 Mississippi
Barkley was supposed to have an All-Pro season behind the powerful elite O-line
The offensive power would have helped the defense by requiring them to play far less.
Instead, the Giants ended up with one of the worst O-lines (if not the worst lines) last season due to poor play and mismanaged injuries (how does AT miss two months for a hamstring injury that didn't even take him out of the game?!?!)
Had the O-line played like the draft capital invested (two high ones, a 2nd rounder and a high 3rd rounder) would have expected it to play, we would be having a very different conversation this off-season.
